In the first place, raunchydog isn't a dude, she's a dame. In the second place, you're fortunate if you've never encountered the insulting association of smelly old fish with a woman. Sorry to be clinical, but it's a reference to menstrual blood, which does smell a little fishy as it's drying. It's a slightly elderly association from pre-Tampax days when the odor was much more of a problem for menstruating women. No older woman would fail to recognize that association, and older women, of course, are Hillary's base, those who may be most tempted to vote for McCain because of Palin. Again, I strongly suspect Obama knew exactly what he was saying.
